Potash: First order of business... Get Randy Moss.  Probably not dude.

Brad Biggs: Kreutz calls for organizational overhaul.

RosenBlog: Waxing poetic as usual.  Everybody panic.

Star-divide

Ogunleye out for the year.  Will he return in 2010 as a Bear?

Billboard going up in Chicago.  Let your voices be heard.

Morrissey: The Lovie and Jerry Show not worth watching.  But yet, you can't look away.

It just me or is Tommie Harris more than a bit dim

Responses to loses over the season:
“It’s that kind of year”
“These things happen”
“It was snowing”

(paraphrasing of course, but not much)

Ya, he cashed in and checked out years ago.

There is only one word to describe this season

Another note

Bulls lost a 35 point lead in the 4th quarter! Well at least we have the Blackhawks this year

I hope Wale can heal his "tibula"

and return to football next year. Maybe his struggles at DE have to do with the fact that he is the only football player in history to have a “tibula”! What’s a “tibula”? I’ll forgive typos in our blog posts, but professionals do not get a pass. Good luck Wale!

When you find yourself in a hole, STOP DIGGING!!!

Maybe his tibia and fibula

are fused in some monstrous fashion.

Decoding

So if not Lovie, who was Kreutz pointing the finger at? JA? The ownership? Assistant coaches? All of the above?

JA keep saying he likes the young players on the roster. Who on earth is he talking about?

Shanahan will be in washingtion in 10

No way the Bears (ie the mccaskey’s) get rid of everyone and pay the high price for Shanahan and continue to pay Lovie and whoever else…..Not going to happen….

Well technically speaking,

they probably wouldn’t have to pay him that much. Give him a couple mil a year the first few years, backloaded it after the Broncos stop filling in the rest of the 7 mil. If you structure it right I’m sure you could get him to sign, except for the, y’know general lack of structure this team has.

Kreutz

He said top to bottom this organization needs an overhaul-maybe he should do himself a favor by quitting after the season.

Harris’ comment is unexceptable, and he should be fined and/or benched by the Bears. Basically, he’s telling everyone that he gave up even before the game started. What an !#%!

Something has to be done...

Cutler was set up to fail, they need to try to build the team around his talents, but I have a feeling that won’t happen.

No band-wagoner fans allowed, pick a team and stick with em, throughout the good and the bad.

Run the table

Time to forget about the rest of this season and focus on next year; namely, lose enough to get some picks in the draft. Like Suh and Claussen. Add those two to the mix and we will have a much better, more competitive team. Let Cutler be Claussen’s Bledsoe and then he can take over in a year or 2. A healthy Uhrlacher and the addition of Suh will wreak havok on the NFC Central…I know nobody likes to lose, but for the good of the team, I think it is necessary. Oh, yeah, and lets get a new coach with some kind of fire in him. Just because he is Tony Dungy’s pal doesn’t qualify him to lead a team. And he proves it every week.

Are you aware that we don't have

a first round draft pick next year (or 2nd for that matter)?

Yes, that makes so much sense, to tie up so much money in a player we’ve basically mortgaged the team’s future for and, essentially, will be building around, and then plan to relegate him in a year or two when he reaches the grand age of 28.
